Hey, I'm Lorenzo
Over time, I’ve realised that poverty is more than just the absence of money or resources.
It’s often the story of “lack” we tell ourselves based on our circumstances.
Growing up, I was often told to be realistic.
“People like us don’t have things like that” was the usual reply to my dreams of high-performance cars and a bigger life.
But being “realistic” felt like a trap.
At 14, a few books opened a door for me. I realised that entrepreneurship and investing might be the best ways to change my path. Two decades later, that discovery remains the driving force of my life.
Today, as a strategist and brand builder, I believe businesses can be forces for good when built with intention. My aim is to create conditions and resources that help people thrive, no matter where their journey starts.
